Giro, Stage 18: Warring Kings

Mikel Landa (Sky) started the day in the Maglia Azzurro of the King of the Mountians competition, but Omar Fraile (Dimension Data) wanted it back. As the pair neared the summit of the second climb of the day, the Passo Valparola, Landa opened up a sprint for the top. Fraile was able to stay with the Spaniard, and get around him to take the maximum points. It is going to be harder to overtake Landa's lead in the competition however.
